The NuSOnG neutrino experiment

The NuSOnG experiment is a possible future high-statistics, high-energy neutrino scattering experiment with the potential to make much improved electroweak and QCD measurements using neutrinos as probes. The experiment would use a high-energy external proton beam prossibly at Fermilab or CERN to produce the high-intensity neutrino beam. Studies[2] have been made of the sensitivity of such an experiment to make much improved electroweak measurements associated with νμ — electron elastic scattering and νμ neutral current scattering. These studies show that NuSOnG would be uniquely sensitive to new physics sources such as heavy Z bosons, extended Higgs models, and anomalous neutrino couplings with mass scales up to 4 to 5 TeV. As shown in Ref. [2], these measurements would be complementary to new physics searches at the LHC.
